    If the ratio of radii of two spheres of same material is 1 : 4 then the ratio of their heat capacities is:

    A)  \[\frac{1}{64}\]

    B)  \[\frac{1}{32}\]

    C)   \[\frac{1}{16}\]

    D)  \[\frac{1}{4}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     Given : Radius of the first sphere \[{{R}_{1}}=R\] Radius of the second sphere \[{{R}_{2}}=4R\] The heat capacity is given by as \[\Delta Q=\frac{4}{3}\pi {{r}^{3}}\rho \,c\propto {{R}^{3}}\] Hence,\[\left( \frac{\Delta {{Q}_{1}}}{\Delta {{Q}_{2}}} \right)=\left( \frac{{{R}_{1}}}{{{R}_{2}}} \right)={{\left( \frac{1}{4} \right)}^{3}}=\frac{1}{64}\]
